serial: 8250_omap: Remove custom deprecated baud setting routine

Browse source 
As comments mentioned this is old (and actually deprecated) interface
to set custom baud rates. This interface has limitations as it only
allows to set a single opaque value called "custom_divisor". If the HW
needs more complex settings (like fractional divisor) it must somehow
encode this. This is horrid interface that is very driver specific
and not flexible. Meanwhile Linux has established way to set free
baud rate settings via BOTHER [1]. With all this being said, remove
deprecated interface for good.
